As of my knowledge, fresher's earn on average INR 15,000 p.m.

Freshers from campus placements from best college/university may fetch salary ranging from INR 20,000-40,000 pm, depending on the company and the job position.

However, most of the fresh candidates either Btech or Mtech qualified earn around 15,000-20,000 p.m.

Informed and well aware fresh graduates prepare and apply for various government postings and exams such as FCI, ASRB, BIS, FSSAI etc.

Depending on their preparation, luck, reservations, number of postings etc. in these government organisations, the graduate may earn well ranging upto 15,000-45,000 p.m.

Basically, the graduate must be well aware of the government, research, private organisation who will eventually employ them and the call for applications or job postings, which in turn mainly relies on the student's self interest.

Good luck.
